The mother of a young WA girl who died in mysterious circumstances has been left outraged by the Health Minister’s “childish and inappropriate” response to the tragic case.
Aliyah Yugovich, aged three, died suddenly in a Perth hospital in July after contracting influenza following a routine tonsillectomy.

Her cause of death remains unknown but a 7NEWS investigation revealed an unaccounted-for drug was found in the toddler’s system.
It is still unclear why and how the medication was given to the toddler.
Liberal leader Libby Mettam raised Aliya’s case at parliament during question time on Tuesday, asking the Health Minister whether “a lack of adequate resourcing” at Perth Children’s Hospital contributed to the child’s death.
“The leader of the Liberal party has plumbed some serious depths and this is a new low,” Amber-Jade Sanderson said in response.
“This terrible circumstance is not fodder for question time. It is not fodder for question time.”
Aliya’s mother Jess Yugovich was “disgusted” with the answer, saying the question was “valid” and the minister’s response “childish and inappropriate”.
“Our lives have been completely destroyed by this. To see the person who is meant to be helping people like us behave like that is infuriating,” she said.
During question time on Wednesday, Sanderson said she wanted to extend “my sympathies to the Yugovich family”.
“It saddens me if any of the comments in question time yesterday upset them and I genuinely wish them well,” she said.
“(I) continue to say that parents should always be heard and this is a complex investigation that needs time to be undertaken.”
Aliyah died suddenly in July after contracting influenza.
Her cause of death remains unknown but an anti-seizure drug was found in her system.
Topiramate is used to treat epileptic seizures and migraines, two conditions the toddler did not have.
There is no record of the drug being prescribed and it should not have been given to her.
There are currently 12 serious cases at Perth Children’s Hospital under review, five of which resulted in death and another four in serious harm.
“From Sandipan and Aishwarya and now Aliyah, we are seeing patients and their parents being blind-sighted and sidelined by a minister who is more interested in protecting her own skin than providing these parents and patients with answers,” Mettam said.
WA Premier Roger Cook said “we want to get answers for Aliyah’s family”.
The coroner’s report into Aliyah’s death is expected before Christmas.
